Still not feeling right!!

I'm on annual leave for 2 weeks that I booked off in January. Knowing my boy came at 33 weeks in 2016 this was Just incase I ended up being unwell again. Should be 30 weeks yesterday, 20 weeks since MC (miscarriage) and still think about it daily. Wish I could switch it off for a bit to get on with my life!

We've been trying to conceive since September last year. If I'm not pregnant by this September can I tell my GP it's been one year trying? Or do i count from the MC (miscarriage) in February?

I was wondering the same as I stopped breastfeeding a year ago and then started trying, although it took a few months for my cycles to return to normal. So not sure when to count from. I was thinking if I’m not pregnant this month I was going to the GP and see what they say.

I’m sorry you’re still struggling daily, I wish also we could just switch it off.

I hope you get your BFP (big fat positive (pregnancy test)) this month and you don’t need to worry about the GP. Baby dust to you. X

I was considering paying for a fertility check up scan, get the for around 100 here. I think my anxiety eould be through the roof waiting for it, which may effect my cycles before it! Right I'm going to try my GP of no luck before september x

Good luck to you too FB1980, maybe were due around the same date this month, my apps are saying between 19-21st July x

Yep, I’m due 19th and that’s one thing my cycles are clockwork.

I had a private fertility scan a few months ago, it cost £100. It was good to reassure me that all was well. Had it a few days after ovulation and it confirmed it at right time so I knew what I was feeling was in fact ovulation pains, good thick lining and no cysts or fibroids. Unfortunately though it hasn’t helped me get pregnant. I’d recommend it though just for peace of mind. X

Hi. We started ttc in March 2013. I had a very early MMC in January 2014. After that MMC I just knew in my mind that something wasn't right. I went to the doctors in March 2014 hoping to be referred for tests. He told us we had to wait a year after the MMC, and gave us a leaflet about conceiving (totally unhelpful, all stuff we were already doing.) I was really struggling emotionally after that as I just knew something was wrong and I felt helpless. I went back to see another GP in the June. He had an interest in fertility issues and agreed to do the basic blood and sperm tests. They showed that my progesterone levels were low and we were referred to the Assisted Conception Unit.

Sorry, long winded way of saying.... Do go to the doctors after a year ttc, and if they continue fobbing you off, keep pestering them!

Through tracking Ov I seem to have a shorter leutal phase than most, at 11 days. Been taking b6 complex to try and lenghten it but no luck. When I Google it I always see progesterone come up and I wonder if that's what my issue is x

I dont think people truly get over/forget about their mc’s. No matter how far along you are a loss is a loss! Even a chemical!

Im 10 weeks now with my second baby and iv been to two paid private scans and have paid for a third. Baby seems happy and healthy etc BUT i do still think about how far i would be, the fact i would be able to feel baby kick and move around.
I did find babys heartbeat yesterday at 10+3 and im chubby so was very happy and felt very reasured.

The point im trying to make is that it will happen! You will all get your rainbows! If you need to go to the docs, take what is offered if it gives you the extra help and support that you need. Xx

Sorry you're struggling. I totally hear you. I was really lucky in that I booked to see my GP but got a random locum who referred me to gynae for help. Still have a long journey ahead, but because we'd at that point only had the ectopic while trying, they were happy to refer me. You have nothing to lose by asking x
